My Librarian

A quick post today, this guy I literrally finished gluing as I walked out of the house this morning.

With luck I will get the time to spray him tonight, and maybe even get some paint on him, the tournament doesnt start for 48 hours at least!

He is the basic SM Librarian you can get from Games workshop, with the left arm cut away from his staff, and the Ultramarines short sword being used as his Force Sword.

For his right arm I have used a MkIV bolt arm and repositioned the shoulder so it is pointing away from his body rather than to it, I then used one of the SM Upgrade shoulder pads to give him another clear Ultramarine marking.

The Combi Bolter from the Cataphracttic terminators - counting as a Stormbolter, had the terminator hand cut away and replaced with one cut away from the Plasma Pistol from the MKIV kit.

Finally I swapped the head out from the actual model with the bare head from the upgrade kit, Librariaans are the only guys I will accept might need their helmet off to augment their powers (in my head at least).

So first up, some time to consider what I should be using for this weekend, I already have a balanced list without Guilliman that shouldnt be too much of an ass to play against, but doesnt really make it easy to get top 40.

So I recently got my hands on the latest edition of Necromunda, here are some quick unboxing snaps.

When you take the top off you are greeted with the usual mass of sprues, and some nice Orange templates... although I have to admit I still have about ten of each! Six sprues in total are included

Removing the sprues and you can see the pack of cards, dice and model bases.

The tiles are neatly shrinkwrapped and look pretty awesome as well.

As is the rulebook --- somehow two days on and I have still avoided removing the shrink wrap while I prep the rest of the box! You also get a very nice guide to how to assemble the models, what it doesnt cover is the mass of spares you get (something I will go into, in another post!

Pulling out the terrain, and i thought it would be worth comparing some of the old style bulkheads that you got in the original Necromunda to the newer ones. The difference is obvious with an overall shorter height and wider body.

I didn't see this coming, and despite perhaps having fallen out of love with Spartan Games, I didn't want the company to close.

The email (as their website appears unreachable at the time of writing this).
